40 x 40 Chikuwa Kaigi
pretty interesting concept/setup. confusing at times with the dialogue, not sure if due to too much casual chatter style or poor translation. this is marked as complete on mangaupdates.
Kuro X Koi
two pairs of twins get together. one of them has a son who also gets a story with his childhood friend. nice art, old school yaoi stories of little plot and much fluff.
Koisuru Tetsumenpi
confused about some parts cuz the dialogue went too "deep" and i guess the translation wasn't good at ensuring context. liked the first couple a lot, but too bad they are still not dating cuz the uke is against office dating or something?? confused about that. ok so seems like i was confused cuz it's not over lol. only read till end of vol2. come back when actually completed...
Sentimental Rodeo
bro wtf in the end they didn't even get together cuz they wanted to keep making porn and like company policy says they can't work together if dating... pretty gross all around. typical porn actor story though. also glorified smoking like saying it's your choice to do it even if you ruin your health.... also the one guy has a son who died who would be nine at present, so he's like several years older than uke or a teen dad or something...
Kazoku Gokko (KIKUYA Kikuko)
high school classmates, apparently both loving each other. but one of them decides to just walk the normal path and get married. soon he divorces cuz he still likes the other guy, but now he has a child. they are living together now, with child, after the wife left. slowly real feelings come to the surface as the guy staying as a fake mom gets pressure to do omiai and has some misunderstanding about other guy getting remarried...
Papa no Sukinahito
SUPER CUUUUTE. childhood friends where one always took care of the other, so the uke fell in love. he was kind of bullied by a senpai to have a sexual relationship?? not sure why they needed that part of the story really cuz it didn't move the relationship along at all. also unclear how they stopped meeting in high school, like the uke just avoided the seme forever? anyway now they meet as adults and it's super cute cuz the seme has a daughter and uke helps take care of her and they're such a cute family together. also confusing why seme lied about what happened with his ex-wife... some translation errors for sure happened.
Koishite Daddy
neighbours, one uni student, one salaryman dad. have sex in first chapter....so no romance. but the focus is on their life together i guess. dealing with kid problems is big thing and dealing with being gay, how society views it and how family views it. there are 2 books after this one with related stories involving their son and childhood friend. love kids is after this and then koisuru daigo-sensei
Kore Mo Shigoto Desu
24 and 35 year old. system engineer and sales rep. they start off as kinda sex friends in exchange for work but both parties are willing. then slowly they get together even though the guy who first expressed interest didn't want to officially become boyfriends cuz he didn't want the possibility of break up. good overall, but nothing too interesting and was a bit of a slog to get through. art reminds me of niyama, or maybe just the uke here since he's older and stubbled.
Motoyan papa to Hitsuji-sensei Yotsuba!
third volume of this couple, idk why not with the other two volumes. but still super cute and everything before holds true now. just some issues with another guy causing some jealousy and issues with the child. also they are slowly but surely moving in together, some conflict dealing with that too. basically their first fightish thing but it wasn't really a fight lol more like awkwardness cuz papa proposed to live together and sensei said no. i'm still not really sure why sensei said that, but it makes sense cuz it seems too soon. just his reasons weren't so clear. and the conflict seems petty, but needed for story and it was cute!! don't mean to make it sound dumb! now sensei wants to give papa a key so they can live together but never got the opportunity to bring it up? then showed the papa is saving money so he can buy a house someday and ofc live with sensei too. they went on a mini vacation cuz the papa was sent to work at a resort cafe for a few days. they had outdoor sex lol. confessed their true love to each other. and are seriously planning to buy a house together now. chap 9. flashback scene to their high school years when they first met.
